Panthenol (Vitamin B5)
Panthenol, also known as Vitamin B5, is a deeply hydrating and skin-conditioning ingredient prized for its ability to penetrate the skin and convert to pantothenic acid — a key component in cellular metabolism and tissue repair. It is one of the most well-tolerated actives in skincare, suitable for all skin types including sensitive and post-treatment skin.
Panthenol works as both a humectant and an emollient, attracting moisture to the skin while softening and smoothing the surface. It supports barrier repair, reduces inflammation, and accelerates wound healing, making it a valuable ingredient in recovery and calming formulas.
- Deep hydration — draws and retains moisture within the skin for lasting comfort and suppleness
- Barrier support — strengthens the skin's protective layer and reduces transepidermal water loss
- Skin conditioning — softens and smooths the skin surface for a more refined appearance
- Healing support — accelerates tissue repair and reduces irritation in compromised skin
